Original text and translations

Vexilla Regis Latin text 1. Vexilla Regis prodeunt: Fulget Crucis mysterium, Qua vita mortem pertulit, Et morte vitam protulit. 3. Impleti sunt quae concinit David fideli carmine, Dicendo nationibus: Regnavit a ligno Deus. Amen. 6. O crux ave, spes unica, hoc passionis tempore Piis adauge gratiam, Reisque dele crimina. Amen. ==I== Innocens ego sum a sanguine justis hujus. ==II== Ave, ave crux. ==III, VII, IX Jesus falls== Jesus cadit. Stabat mater dolorosa juxta crucem lacrymosa, dum pendebat filius. ==VI St. Veronica== German text O Haupt voll Blut und Wunden, Voll Schmerz und voller Hohn, O Haupt, zum Spott gebunden Mit einer Dornenkron’, O Haupt, sonst schön gezieret Mit höchster Ehr’ und Zier, Jetzt aber höchst schimpfieret; Gegrüßet sei’st du mir! ==VIII The women of Jerusalem== Nolite flere super me, sed super vos ipsas flete et super filios vestros. ==XI== Crucifige! ==XII== Eli, Eli, lamma Sabacthani In manus tuas commendo spiritum meum. Consummatum est. O Traurigkeit, o Herzeleid, Ist das nicht zu beklagen? Gott des Vaters einigs Kind wird ins Grab getragen. ==XIV== Ave crux, spes unica, mundi salus et gloria Auge piis justitiam Reisque dona veniam! Amen. Ave crux. English translation The royal banners forward go; The cross shines forth in mystic glow Where He in flesh, our flesh who made, our sentence bore, our ransom paid;          Fulfilled is all that David told In true prophetic song of old; Amidst the nations, God, saith he, Hath reigned and triumphed from the tree. O Cross, our one reliance, hail! So may thy power with us avail To give new virtue to the saint And pardon to the penitent. (J. M. Neale, 1851) English translation O sacred Head, now wounded, with grief and shame weighed down, Now scornfully surrounded with thorns, Thine only crown; O sacred Head, what glory, what bliss till now was Thine! Yet, though despised and gory, I joy to call Thee mine.
